what did einstein say common sense was? that layer of prejudices laid down usually by the age of 18. this does not make sense to you, because you know why? it's not part of your background. it's not part of your experience. this is off your experience. maybe jet planes wouldn't make sense to a caveman and this stuff is just starting to make sense to us, yeah. i'll tell you what, gang? there's no catch, as we understand it, nature is this way. many, many experiments to see if there's something wrong about this and all these experiments have only gone into confirming that einstein was right. let me say a neat thing about science too. in a lot of fields, there'll be some sort of hero like einstein's our hero, here. we all love einstein. most of us do, yeah. so, einstein's our hero, and you tend to think, "well, if he's a hero, you don't wanna take shots at him." but in science, it's different. in science, say "hero-schmero." everybody is trying to crack that hero and find something wrong. everyone's attacking to see if they ca

questioned our way of seeing the world, but the very nature of reality itself-- planck's quantum theory, einstein's theory of relativity, freud's work on psychoanalysis. it was in 1900 that freud wrote his interpretation of dreams, a prophetic work in view of the tragedies of modern western history. freud wrote and published it here in vienna. vienna, 1900, was one of the intellectual and artistic centers of europe. in tracing modern art's emergence in the 20th century, vienna embodies, perhaps more than any other city, the struggle to break with the ossified traditions of the 19th century to achieve a modern art, an art for the 20th century. turn-of-the-century vienna was a prosperous and technologically advanced society, peaceful and secure, the center of the austro-hungarian empire, ruled over for more than 50 years by the last of the hapsburgs-- emperor franz josef. franz josef symbolized permanence and stability. he cultivated a status quo, based on a bureaucracy and state censorship, which exerted a virtual strangle hold on the capital's cultural imagination. artistic life was dominated by th

of course, einstein spent most of his life trying to find the unification of all the forces, you know? and they still haven't-- they, meaning the physics type, still haven't found that magnetism or electromagnetism and gravity have a commonality. that has not been found. if it's there, if it's there. let me say this, though. it seems like there's two different things going on here. when i first learned about this, i thought-- i learned two different phenomenon. one was, if a current flows through a wire, it's deflected. and then a completely different one was that if you take a wire and plunge it out of a magnetic field, you'll induce current. but you know what? they're one and the same. there is a commonality there. let's look at it. if it's true that electrons going through a magnetic field, crisscrossing, will be deflected, then it ought to be true that you can generate electricity by doing this because it's one and the same thing. how fast do the electrons travel in a common circuit compared to the speed of light, fast or slow? slow, about a snail's pace. did you pick that up in t
